I just started SoundGym back in Novemebre, and all I have is my laptop (DELL Latitude E5540) and some headphones, no other speakers. Besides decent headphones (I have the Sony Stereo Headphones MDR-7506) is there anything you all can recommend to get better sound quality so I can hear certain frequencies, distortion, any better? Anyone have any experience with SoundID Reference from Sonarworks? Thank you all!
SoundID i was using it in my studio for a year. After a year i decided to try more gentle curves with EQ on my monitors. It was good move, bass response was so much better, SoundID alter phase in bass area too much. As for headphones, try this site (https://autoeq.app/), try apo EQ it will help for sure. Additionaly, i recommend reading about crossfeeding for better panorama decisions.
Do you have an audio interface, or do you plug your headphones directly onto your computer? If you have a low budget and/or need to stick to headphones for now, the first upgrade IMO would be a decent audio interface.
check if your headphone is measured on https://diyaudioheaven.wordpress.com make sure your headphone impedance is 5-10x that of you headphone output if you want to emulate monitor speakers on your headphones, there are several plugins for your DAW that do so (like sienna https://www.acustica-audio.com/shop/products/SIENNAFREE) but that will not help you with the soundgym exercises. Good luck!
Hey, hello everyone, is this the right place to suggest SoundGym UI improvements? If so, could I recommend adding the top 3 high-scores to the game information screen, below 'Your current level'? Selecting each game and seeing the scores would be very easy to track which games require some improvements.
That too! I've lost count how many time's I've forgotten to change it and ended up with a training sound that I don't want to use. I really like the variety of sounds, but sometimes I do like to just use one sound over and over. If I do bad on a game, I just hit F5 to refresh, as it allows you to start again without having to re-select the sound.
Good morning everyone! Thanks to the wonderful feedback this community has given me on many mixes, my new album is finally being released. As a thank you to the Soundgym community, I'm allowing for free downloads of my 13-track album “Return to Space Command Seven” until it releases on streaming platforms 1/13/2026. I have it set up as NAME YOUR PRICE, but no obligation whatsoever! Grab it, share it and enjoy! It is far more important to me to have people enjoy my music than make a few dollars. Thank you all so much! Live long and rock. ASTROFREQ https://astrofreq.bandcamp.com/album/return-to-space-command-seven
I finally passed Level 1 of EQ Cheetah TT. It was taunting me for weeks but I finally locked in and my ears reached EQ flow state. This is my message to the world that you can do whatever you set your mind to!
